Are delivery trucks allowed to just park and block an entire lane on Greenwood Ave N?

North of 105th, UPS, FedEx, etc, will just stop and park in the right hand lane, turn on their hazards and leave it parked there. It’s dangerous and creates a bunch of bad scenarios by people changing lanes at the last second to avoid them. Today around 10:15 am a UPS truck almost got absolutely plowed. I was behind the rig that almost hit them and would have rear ended that vehicle if I hadn’t changed lanes. I drive Greenwood Ave everyday, both ways, and see them parked like this more and more often. Between the lack of a center turn lane, all the constant construction, and constant lane change dodging, it seems crazy to me.
